Running shoes can definitely be the problem. It's a layer of squishy-ness between you and the ground, which counteracts the taut-ness your body will get from good form. There are tons of options for shoes that have solid, non-squishy soles, but I prefer to just go barefoot.

Bit late but I wanted to update, it was definitely the shoes. Barefoot let me go deeper with no pain :) thanks again!
